Yield Line Analysis of Slabs
Yield Line Analysis of Slabs
(OP)
Does anyone actually use this in practice?
I have been learning about it recently in an graduate-level advanced concrete class, and it is very interesting. However, I am wondering if there is anyone out there who uses it. It seems like there may be some hurdles to applying it in practice.

I used yield line to analyze a plate about 40 years ago (they had markers back then, too) where the columns were offset by half a bay.
I tried attaching a file on yield line (source unknown) but it is over 5 meg... and too large, I guess.

Dik,
Have you tried zipping the file before posting it?
ishvaaag,
Are you supposed to be able to download a publication from that link? I tried clicking the download link but it takes me elsewhere.
